Private school in Gold Coast expels students for creating 'rape list'
Recently, there have been reports of a disturbing incident at a private school on the Gold Coast. A few students were expelled from Emmanuel College in Carrara after being involved in creating a "rape list" about their female classmates. This news came to light about two weeks ago and the school has since released a statement addressing the issue.

According to the statement, the school was made aware of some of its students engaging in offensive and inappropriate online behavior towards their female peers. This behavior goes against the values of the school, which prides itself on being a caring and Christian community that prioritizes safety and respect. Upon investigation, it was discovered that students from other local schools were also involved in this unacceptable behavior.

In response to this incident, Emmanuel College has taken appropriate action and a small number of students are no longer enrolled at the school. The school has also held a meeting with the Year 10 cohort to reinforce expectations and address the issue. Moreover, students have been offered support, counseling, and pastoral care to help them cope with the situation. Parents and guardians have also been informed about the incident.

It is disheartening to see such behavior still exists in our society. The school is appalled that a small group of boys think it is acceptable to view girls in this manner. As a result, Emmanuel College is determined to strengthen its efforts in educating students about appropriate behavior. The school is committed to promoting a culture of respect, responsibility, and support among its students.
